    Is it possible to show the difference between a paved and a gravel road? When you enjoy driving small roads abroad, it is often difficult to find out whether a road is paved or not.

                @Nick-Carthew, I would be surprised if the references for OSM are the same as for Here.

                I am just an enthusiastic MRA user, and hope you will be one too!

                  @Con-Hennekens Correct , but the original poster didn’t mention the Here map. You can check the type of road by using the OSM overlay.

                        Gravel roads ar Grey on the Here map

                        When it is as simpel as that, I would not ask for it. Most of de Gray roads on the Here map are paved. But some are not. When there is streetview available you can check that, but the small roads often do not have streetview.
                        https://www.openstreetmap.org/key has options for all kinds of roads, but not for unpaved roads. So yes when there is an option that you can see which roads are unpaved during planning hat would be perfect.

                          If we are taking steps anyway, I would like a way to PREFER the green roads on the Michelin Layer (scenic roads).

                            @Con-Hennekens yes I use that too. But not all countrys have that. And for safety reasons I like to know if it is paved or not. The information is available because you can choose for using only paved roads.
